Blooming
Although my health was fine, the hospital was still worried about my recurrence, so they stayed in the hospital for another month before releasing me. Later, the UN Force leadership granted me a six-month leave and authorized Amanda to accompany me.
As much as I want to return home with Amanda to visit my parents and sister as soon as possible, there is one more thing that lingers on my mind. I had to go to Amanda's hometown, New York, to visit the Metropolitan Museum, one of the world's top five museums. Because I vaguely remember seeing the crown in this museum that was treasured in the temple a thousand years later, but the memory was quite vague, and I had to find out what was real.
When we returned to New York, the first thing we did at my request was to visit the Metropolitan Museum. On a sunny afternoon, we arrived at this vast museum as promised. Not only is the museum second to none, with a collection of 3 million works of art from ancient to modern, both ancient and modern, but its interior design mimics the style of different historical periods, from the Roman style of the first century to the modern United States. The museum is divided into 19 sections, and despite the intricacies of the interior, I was like a fairy guiding me to the area where the fifteenth-century golden princess's crown is kept.
When the dazzling crown came into my sight, I felt like my breath was in a hurry. I scurried two steps, and was only a stone's throw away from the crown in the glass case. I looked closely, and sure enough, it wasn't something like it, but it was. This is the illustrious and mysterious crown, the golden crown hidden deep in the underground temple thousands of years later. Today, it's housed in a tight, bulletproof glass case, and I held the crown myself and wore it on the head of a villain. Although time has passed, this strange encounter is still unforgettable in my heart.
At this time, a middle-aged female docent of the museum happened to pass by. I hurried two steps to catch up with her, "Hello, I want to tell you that this crown is so precious that you must do everything in your power to protect it. ”
The female docent stopped, turned her head to look at me in confusion, and said, "Don't worry, we will definitely take good care of these art treasures." Besides, we have thousands of pieces in this museum that are worth more than this crown, and even if a thief comes to steal it, he won't steal it first, so you can put that in mind. ”
The narrator had quietly left, but I hadn't recovered from my thoughts. I stood beside the glass case that carried the crown, still muttering to myself: "Maybe in the eyes of the world, this crown is not as valuable as other treasures, but it has an extraordinary place in my heart!" ”
It was only after walking some distance out of the museum that I woke up and finally came back to reality. It was only then that I realized that Amanda was following me was a bit unusual, and I looked back at him, and he looked very reserved, with his head down.
"What's wrong with you?" I asked with concern.
Amanda looked up at me, "No...... It's nothing. The expression was still a little cramped and uneasy.
I know Amanda, and if he doesn't want to say it, you'd better not ask again. When he is ready and wants to speak, he will naturally talk about it. So we walked silently for a while and came to a corner of the central garden in the middle of the street. In New York, USA, it's the height of summer, and the garden is full of delicate flowers in full bloom, which is really beautiful!
While I was still indulging in the flowers, suddenly Amanda fell to me on one knee, holding a sparkling diamond ring in her hand, and stammered, "Hope...... I hope you can marry me, and I will protect you for the rest of my life! ”
This happiness came so suddenly that I was almost suffocated with excitement. I didn't stop at all, but walked up to Amanda's side, took the diamond ring that clearly showed her immortality, and put it on my finger. It was all so unreal, so unreal, like in an illusory nightmare, that I didn't really realize it was all real until Amanda put her arms around me affectionately.
I feel so happy that I want to tell the world all this, to my parents, my sister and brother-in-law, to my good friends, that I still want to ...... Tell my best friends Hetty, Fanny, and Susan, as well as my classmates Allen, Doug, Bennet, and Zhou Qing, as well as the director of the Security Agency, Raymond, and the director of the psychiatric hospital, Alsace, the nurse, and the police officers Patel and Dr. Charry, who will never forget me......
Amanda and I held hands and wandered along the flower-filled path. I looked up into the distance, as if through the clouds, and saw all my best friends in the next century, standing on the edge of the distant sky, waving to me......
